Catriona Matthew and Henni Zuel believe Muirfield is living in the dark ages and have urged the clubs members to join them in the 21st Century where women play golf. Muirfield has been removed from The Open rotation list by the R&A after its members voted against allowing female golfers into the club. The vote has been hugely controversial and has sparked a backlash from male golfers, including Rory McIlroy, as well as golfs governing body and Matthew says the decision paints a poor image of Scottish golf. Matthew, who was inducted into the Scottish Golf Hall of Fame earlier this year, admits she is worried Muirfields decision could do lasting damage to golf in Scotland. Sky Sports Golf’s Henni Zuel reflects on Muirfield’s decision to stick with its male-only membership policy Its just not good for golf in Scotland, it sets a poor image of Scottish golf, she told Sky Sports News HQs Sportswomen programme.Obviously Muirfield are a very small section of Scottish golf, but with all the coverage this is getting all around the world its just not good for golf in Scotland.In this day and age of 2016, its bad for equality and its a shame that we wont be having The Open here now.A two-thirds majority was needed from the Muirfield members to carry the motion, but with 397 voting in favour of allowing women and 219 against their introduction, the rule change fell short by 14 votes. The R&A responded to Muirfields decision, saying it would not allow the tournament to be held at a venue that does not admit female members. Muirfield has been the target of huge backlash after refusing to admit female members Former Ladies European Tour player and Sky Sports expert Zuel thinks the vote is a poor business decision by the club and insisted the club must change its ways if it is to compete in the modern market. Its the 21st Century, we cant be thinking those kind of things any more, were not stuck in the dark ages, she said.It has to evolve and the game of golf has to evolve if it is to survive in a modern-day economy, where women are board members and CEOs of companies. It will take a very special lady golfer to be able to do all the things that are expected of them in the template which is suggested and the ladies membership as a whole may not meet this standard. Letter from No campaigners Were not Emily Pankhurst any more and I think we need to recognise that, and its fantastic that the governing body of golf recognises that. The clubs board had recommended that women should be admitted, but there was a vocal in-house opposition to the changes with the no campaigners circulating letters opposing the introduction of women.Sportswomen approached several Muirfield members for comment, with many declining to talk, but found two yes-voters who gave a glimpse into the clubs mindset.One member said he was disappointed with the decision and admitted the R&A was quite right to take action against the club. Members of Muirfield Golf Club give their reactions to the ballot which decided not to allow women to join I voted in favour of women coming in, he said. Why? Because I think we live in the 21st Century and I also want to keep The Open.John Trainer, a Muirfield golfer, also voted yes for the introduction of women, but insisted the clubs ethos must be protected.I voted in favour of lady members, not because I wanted a lot of lady members here, but I think that I felt like I was King Canute pushing the waves back and its bound to come, he said.Its a mens lunch club and theres nothing wrong with having a few lady members. I think if you had 50/50 members then it would change the whole ethos of the club.

There may be flickers of hope, but West Ham United remain in disarray.Manager Slaven Bilics West Ham (3-4-8) have gone from European qualification to 17th in the Premier League in the space of less than half a season, with the prospect of a relegation tussle now far more likely than a repeat of last years heroics.Theyll have a chance at success Wednesday night against visiting Burnley.There is a sliver of reason for positivity among West Ham fans. Sundays 2-2 draw with Liverpool saw the Hammers put in a much-improved performance as they brought an extremely tough run of fixtures to an end, having faced Arsenal, Manchester United and Tottenham Hotspur prior to facing Jurgen Klopps side.And now West Ham have back-to-back winnable matches with Burnley and Hull City both visiting the Olympic Stadium inside four days.We tried to get as many points as possible from these four, on paper, very difficult fixtures and now we have Burnley and Hull at home, Bilic said after the draw with Liverpool.Those games will be extremely difficult in every way and we will have to show the character again, but also the quality, togetherness, patience, because they will be very mentally demanding games. We have to be ready for them.One big challenge for the Hammers will be to get some confidence on their new home patch where the east Londoners have won just twice in seven league games this season. There will be no better chance to do that than against a Burnley side who have struggled desperately away from home.Sean Dyches Clarets (5-2-8) have based their ssolid start to the season almost entirely on their home form, picking up just a single point and scoring only one solitary goal in six matches on the road.dddddddddddd.Saturdays 3-2 home win over Bournemouth was impressive, but Burnley will need to take that form with them on the trip to London, while a repeat of Jeff Hendricks sensational volley wouldnt go amiss.If you want to do well everyone needs to chip in, we cant just rely on strikers, Hendrick modestly said after his cracker put the team on their way to a fifth win of the campaign. We cant just rely on the strikers, they will pop up with goals and they always want to score but its good to have others chipping in.Ive come close the last few games, against Stoke I tried to lob the keeper and he saved it, against Palace I could have had one or two and Ive been a bit frustrated that I didnt put them away. Ive got personal goals and I need keep getting in and around the box and get more.Hendrick is likely to play as the central creative player once again on Wednesday, but wide man Johann Gudmundsson remains sidelined with a hamstring problem.West Ham have a host of injury problems with James Collins, Cheikhou Kouyate, Sam Byram and Reece Oxford doubts. Gokhan Tore and Diafra Sakho have been ruled out.The Hammers have won three of their last four Premier League encounters with Burnley and lost just one of their last 11 in all competitions against them.
